aClinical scores were rated using the ICARS score (Trouillas et al., 1997). The table lists the total ICARS scores and the subscores for gait and posture (P), limb kinetics (K), speech (S), and oculomotor functions (O). Higher scores indicate more severe ataxia. Maximum scores are given in parentheses. Clinical ataxia symptoms, as scored by the ICARS, were not correlated with either the APCIdx or the baseline NTV. More detailed analyses of the relevant subscores of the ICARS for kinetic disturbances also revealed no significant correlation (all Kendall's tau < 0.3, all p > 0.2 for the ICARS score and subscores).
